ooc: This post is open to everyone. It's complete bendy time too. Feel free to drop by, chat with one another and have fun!

The San Diego convention center was filled with all sorts of exhibits, panels and vendors selling all sorts of collectibles. There seemed to be so much to do and tons of events worth seeing.

"I'm finally here," Chuck commented out loud to no one in particular.

Blushing at Chuck's praise, Tommy gave him a nod of his head in thanks. "Seriously, you're far too kind." he insisted with a grin. "I'm just starting out, but...y'know, I feel like I kinda got my legs solid under me."

Catching Hiro's look, Tommy raised a curious eyebrow, realizing he was looking for something. At least, that's what it seemed like...

"So, uh...where you guys headed?" he asked after a moment, smiling pleasantly. "I just got in a while ago, so I'm kinda looking to see what I can see before I have to head back to Hollywood tonight. Maybe we can cruise the vendors together or something, talk some more."

"We're headed to the Gene Roddenberry project panel. And later we're gonna see the Superman one," Chuck explains.

"We are going to the Gene Roddenberry panel; however, we are free for about an hour and a half before the next panel."

Tommy perked a bit at the mention of the Roddenberry panel. "Seriously? I might head over there myself." he replied, blushing a little with a grin as he raised a hand in confession. "Closet Trekkie over here...well, maybe not so closet. I mean, I'm an artist? So I love anything sci-fi. The special effects, the art, it's all completely mindblowing to me."

"I'm...well, let's just say I kinda can recite Wrath of Khan word for word," Chuck remarks with a sheepish grin. "I won't go over the top though and bore people with facts or anything and I do know the show was fictional though. So...I guess that makes me a somewhat dedicated but rational Trekkie?"

"Come with us. We are not 'closet' Trekkies. You are an artist, too? What do you draw?"

OOC: Of course, Hiro comes by it naturally, having Mr. Sulu for a father. :D

Tommy grinned shyly at Hiro's bright, nodding in agreement. "Okay...yeah, I will, thanks." he replied.

At Hiro's question about his work, he did his best to shrug it off. "Oh, I'm a graphic artist, I work for a design firm in Hollywood. We do work for pretty much everybody...music labels, printing presses, pharmaceutical companies, we even subcontract to some advertising agencies that need a hand with the artistic aspect of a campaign. I sketch a little in my spare time...some portraits, some landscapes."

He paused, another shy smile touching his features. "Though I do like to do some pretty funky magic-themed stuff, too. Just for fun, ya know? Rabbits pulling magicians out of hats and other crazy shit."

"I was talking to Chuck about getting a graphic arts degree. Animation would be fun. I am not certain I could do original artwork on a computer."

"Have you seen the short before Wall-E? Is that you?"

Chuck grins and adds, "If you like rabbits pulling magicians out of hats, you'd get a kick out of that short, Tommy."

"It is very silly!"
